Surf Dreams delivers consistently excellent results for both kids and adults, with instructors like Phil, Noah, Gage, and JT earning enthusiastic praise across the board. Families rave about how quickly beginners catch waves and stand up, often within minutes of their first lesson. The teaching approach strikes an ideal balance between safety-consciousness and building confidence, with several parents noting how nervous kids transformed into excited surfers by lesson's end. The instructor-to-student ratio stays impressively low, giving everyone plenty of personalized attention. What really stands out is the operation's flexibility and personal touch. Phil and his team handle everything from last-minute board rentals to special events like free kids' surf days and sunset sessions for moms. The rental process is refreshingly simple with convenient drop-off and pickup. Many reviewers mention returning year after year, and some families who've never seen the ocean before left wanting to buy their own boards. The overall vibe is warm and encouraging, with instructors who genuinely care about each person's experience and provide useful tips beyond just the basics of standing up.
We had a great time! We had 2 adults and 1 child for a private lesson. We were all first-timers, and the instructors made it easy and fun. We will be back next year. Highly recommend!
